Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Toast the Spices

    In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast the cumin seeds, coriander seeds, black mustard seeds, and fenugreek seeds until fragrant, about 3-4 minutes. Stir frequently to avoid burning.

  2. 2

    Grind the Spices

    Transfer the toasted seeds to a spice grinder or mortar and pestle. Grind until you achieve a fine powder.

  3. 3

    Mix with Ground Spices

    In a bowl, combine the ground spice mixture with turmeric powder, chili powder, garam masala, and salt. Mix well until all spices are evenly distributed.

  4. 4

    Store the Masala Dabba

    Transfer the mixed spices to a clean, dry jar or spice container. Seal tightly and store in a cool, dark place.
